saying they won't vote for the nominee if it's Sanders.

This poll simply serves no purpose.

And I haven't seen any similar polls posted asking Sanders supporters similar questions if Biden is the nominee, trying to see if any of them are unwise enough to say publicly here that hey won't vote for the nominee.

As for "energetic antipathy" -- there's certainly been a hell of a lot of energetic antipathy toward Biden, but possibly as a Sanders supporter you're so used to it you don't notice it.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
